    Project Structure

     

    Karate Automation Project

    Normally, non-java files like feature files are placed under /src/test/resources directory. However, Karate team recommends to place the feature files along side with java files in the project. To make this change add the following build configuration to pom.xml file.

    Feature files can be created under /src/test/java directory in the project.

    <testResources>
    <testResource>
    <directory>src/test/java</directory>
    <excludes>
    <exclude>**/*.java</exclude>
    </excludes>
    </testResource>
    </testResources>
